Damn Ben, you are still the best, hands down.
Can the bar be raised any further? With you I always know it can be.

Thanks T-Pak, Oh darn I almost forgot about # 100, guess I'll have to skip a few numbers, glad you like this stuff. See 'ya soon.
Thechikitiki, :0 You always bring that smile to my face since #1, almost a hundred pieces ago, such a long time ago it seems. Thanks for taking the time as I Know you are busy, Appreciate the comps. HappyHAppy
Aloha, Thanks, I've been trying to iron out the kinks for awhile and some woods are fine with it and some way not, Knot!
Finks, Thanks my forever friend, Not the best at all but in your eyes is what counts.
Thanks AKUAE, happy you could stop by with such praise, glad you liked the new signature too.
Now to get back to work on one I started yesterday and worked till late last night on.

N°98 is awesomer than what I was expecting and the new signature's top shelf.
The new bone looks pretty sharp.
Oasis will be happy to welcome you !
Mahalo,

Thanks Benella, unfortunately I won't be going to Oasis, Wish I were though.
Unfortunately too that comb turned out to be a Non comb carving
Here's the update.
But for a bit of polishing, he's done.

TikiMango, Thanks, I was Really ticked off when the buffing wheel grabbed a couple tines and sent them to Miami but after I realized there would be No Heru, I settled for a small tekoteko face.
Laojia, close, he's 1 1/4 inch tall and 1 inch wide and and hours spent over this guy were 12 Plus. This piece of bone was a Pleasure to carve, except for the buffer incident it went well Thanks.
Oh, yeah, I was talking to the Marq yesterday (Oh he likes to be called John!)and he Told me about haunting some peeps in their dreams anad he especially liked the chap called Laojia because he had so much fun in your mind.  Do you mind telling us about that dream,,, those Eyes,,,those Greeen eyes,,those Hauntingly greeeen eyes? John seems to think it was a great story but he would say no more! Thanks again
Watango, thanks for the kind words, glad you like John. Watch the Green Eye!
benella Thanks for the Miles of Smiles, just what I needed this morning. I've spent too many hours hunched over the bench the past few days.
Not sure what will come up today, maybe nothing, maybe something, we'll see.

It´s been a while now. I started checking TC a few weeks ago and realized that I missed much of the good stuff going up here.
I did not recognize you were starting a new thread. I really love the deversity in material and ideas you have. We had urchin, jade, ebony, redwod, bone, koa and bone again so far. Very cool. I only can do wood.
